What is the Faster path from policy intent course about?

Compliance teams spend 60% of cycle time in rework, clarification loops, and late-stage corrections because initial policy intent isn't translated into executable formats early enough. This delays go-live, increases cost, and erodes trust with engineering and audit partners.
